What it is
Import is a way to start a resume without typing in years of job history by hand. A candidate connects their LinkedIn profile, the import runs as a background job through Apify, and the result lands as structured entries in the candidate's resume library: roles, dates, and descriptions, the kind of detail a resume actually needs.
The raw data the scrape pulls in along the way is never shown to the candidate directly, only the structured result is. That distinction matters because a raw LinkedIn export can carry more than a resume needs, formatting artifacts, unrelated profile fields, duplicate entries, none of which a candidate should have to clean up by hand before their resume is usable.
How it works
- 1
Connect a LinkedIn profile
A candidate points import at their own profile to start the process.
- 2
The import runs in the background
Apify handles the pull as a background job, so a candidate doesn't sit watching a progress bar.
- 3
Raw data stays behind the scenes
The scraped data itself is never surfaced to the candidate directly, only what comes out the other end.
- 4
Structured history lands in the resume library
Roles, dates, and descriptions from the profile appear as resume content the candidate can review and edit.
- 5
Edit or curate from there
Imported history becomes a normal part of the resume library, open to manual edits or to AI curation for a specific job.
A background job, not a live wait
Import doesn't hold a candidate on a loading screen. It runs as a background job, which means a candidate can start it and move on to something else on Intervieux while the pull finishes on its own.
Structured data, not a raw dump
What a candidate sees afterward is resume content, not a copy of everything the scrape touched. The raw LinkedIn data pulled in during the process is never shown to the candidate directly, only the structured history that comes out of it.
One way in, several ways to use it
History that comes in through import isn't locked to that source. It lands in the same resume library as anything typed in by hand, which means it can become part of a master resume, get curated for a specific job, or serve as the material a resume-based interview questions the candidate on.
Available through the agent too
LinkedIn import isn't limited to a single screen. It's also one of the personal agent's tools, free to use with no billing gate, so a candidate working through the agent can trigger the same import without switching context.
A starting point, not a finished resume
What import produces is structured, but it isn't automatically the version a candidate should send to an employer. It's built to save the retyping work, not to replace judgment about what to emphasize. From there, a candidate can edit the imported history directly or run it through AI curation for a specific job, the same as any resume already sitting in the library.
Who it's for
Who it's for
Import suits any candidate who already keeps their work history current on LinkedIn and would rather start their resume library from that than retype years of job titles and dates by hand. It also fits candidates who use Intervieux's personal agent as their main way of getting things done, since the same import runs there too.
Someone switching jobs after years at one company, with a long history to account for, gets the most out of skipping the manual entry entirely.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to enter my work history by hand if I use LinkedIn import?
No. Import pulls work history from a connected LinkedIn profile into structured resume entries, so a candidate starts from that instead of a blank form.
Can I see the raw data LinkedIn import pulls in?
No. The raw scrape is never shown to the candidate directly. What appears afterward is the structured resume history that comes out of it.
How long does the import take?
Import runs as a background job through Apify, so a candidate doesn't have to wait on it actively before continuing to use Intervieux.
Can I edit what LinkedIn import brings in?
Yes. Imported history lands in the resume library like any other resume content, editable directly or through AI curation for a specific job.
Is the resume LinkedIn import creates ready to send to an employer right away?
It's a structured starting point built to save the retyping work, not a finished, polished send-out version. Most candidates still review it or run it through AI curation before applying to a specific job.
